I Don't Want To Be Heard...

I want to be listened to, really listened to. I want people to listen not just to what I'm saying, but the message beneath, what I'm trying to convey, what I may not be saying but trying to express to them.

Anyone can hear me. If I scream, people will hear my scream whether they want to or not. It's automatic. Hearing is just a voice in your ear saying words. I don't want to be heard. I want to be listened to. There is a huge difference.
